No, and honestly, I don't see that as an issue ;-) Old configs with new kernels will always have issues if a new dependency is created. In other words, that's a WONTFIX bug. make localmodconfig is to disable only the configs not needed for the loaded modules. If a required config was not in the original .config, then that's out of scope for localmodconfig. But the bug you reported was, localmodconfig was disabling a required config that was in the original .config. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
